Netflix is home to an enviable library of movies. From horror, to comedy, to romance — and everything in between — the streamer has all that we could want and more. Each week, Netflix releases a roundup of the most popular 10 films on the streaming service, noting the most popular movies on Netflix that are the top choices for subscribers at the moment.
Right now, we’re seeing a spike in animated films, with oldies like Sing 2 and Trolls on the list, alongside 2022’s The Bad Guys. (Many kids were just home from school for the last week and some change for winter break, which likely accounts for this unusual spike in interest.)
Below, you’ll find the list of top movies on Netflix right now, which we’ll be updating weekly with information about each title and links to our reviews, letting you know which titles to stream and which ones you can probably skip.
And while you’re here, why not check out our other Netflix lists, including the Best Movies on Netflix and what’s New on Netflix this month. Happy streaming!
